Meet the aRTIST: jAMIE GREENBERG

LH: Whats your first memory using makeup?

JAMIE: When I was six years old my Aunt gave me a makeover on Thanksgiving Day. I absolutely fell in love with the look of the mascara, eyeliner and lipstick she applied on me that day.

LH: You’re really a pioneer of using Youtube to really educate both makeup artists and every day people. What made you decide to dedicate your time to this platform?

JAMIE: My goal of using social media was to really unite and talk to women and create a portal of discussion. I studied film editing in college and I love story telling. I love connecting with women around the world.

LH: Your clients always have the most flawless and lifelike skin. Share with us your staple skincare and makeup products you use to achieve these looks.

JAMIE: Derma flashing is a great way to prep skin before makeup. It removes dead skin and peach fuzz which gives you that coveted "babies bottom” feeling face. I am all about Tatcha dewy mist to give that perfect glow. I also swear by True Botanicals oils, Sisley cream and Natura Bissé Diamond Essence moisturizer. These products are fantastic!

LH: Was becoming a celebrity makeup artist always your goal? If not, what led you to the field?

JAMIE: I studied film and editing in college but discovered that I was a bit too social for that field. Before we moved to LA I got a job at Ulta on a whim which fast-tracked me to moving to LA with them. I then took a job at Bloomingdales which led to my love affair with luxury beauty. I had never thought of specifically working with celebrities. My husband saw an ad on Craigslist for a position with Jillian Dempsey’s makeup line which introduced me to celebrity artistry. Her brand was bought by Avon and they then hired me to be their ambassador. I was with Avon for eight years. Being able to assist huge artists like Pati DuBroff, Stefon Moray, Kristi Coleman and Monika Blunder was super impactful. All these puzzle pieces led me to where I am today!

LH: What advice would you give to aspiring artists that want to work closely with celebrities?

JAMIE: Be able to read a room, it’s not about you it’s about the client. Be able to keep your mouth shut and not talk about behind the scenes things. You need to have your craft perfected. Be a chameleon! It’s imperative to be confident and genuine.

LH: How do you make time for yourself between juggling your busy career and your super cute kids?

JAMIE: Fitness, meditation, a nanny and good husband are SO IMPORTANT! I’m never off the clock. I have learned to function on way less sleep and constantly remind myself that other women have done it before me. There are days that are easier and days when I pull over to the side of the road and cry!

LH: What is the most rewarding aspect of your career?

JAMIE: I really enjoy being surrounded by creative people that are making really cool things and that the environment I’m in is always changing! I love entertainment and to be able to have conversations with people writing, directing and starring in the entertainment industry is so exciting for me. I get to make them look good. It’s a forum and I’m such a fan so… it’s inspiring to be around that successfully creative energy.

LH: Who is another artist in the industry you admire and why?

JAMIE: I am really obsessed with Jo Baker. I know her and love her as a person. She’s inspiring me because we get caught in comfort makeup and she’s reminding me to take risks and be more creative.

(WE ARE OBSESSED TOO!)

LH: What is one of the most important things you have learned in your 10+ years in the industry?

JAMIE: Don’t compare your career to anyone else's. Everyones path is their own.

LH: What’s a surprising item that lives in your kit that other artists or fans might not know about (and should)?

JAMIE: I keep an old credit card in my kit at all times to use as a liner stencil and for quick mascara application!

LH: What is your favorite LHLA product and/or look you have created with LHLA?

JAMIE: Houdini is probably my favorite! I recently used it on Mae Whitman and she fell in love as well!

LH: What inspired “Ruthberry” Spacejam® and why did you choose this specific charity to work with?

JAMIE: This color looks good on EVERYONE!! It looks like a cranberry geode! When I lost my mom I was looking for a charity in LA to work with and found a woman who had recently lost her daughter and started a network for people effected by ovarian cancer. We helped each other through the pain and have formed such a special bond! This cause is very dear to my heart!
